SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
My brakes went out in November 2020 with a bad hydraulic brake control and hydraulic control unit. The parts were replaced and everything was fine until December 2023. The same alarm came up that the truck brakes had failed. I took the truck back to the dealer who fixed it. They notified me that there is a known problem with these parts and there are no parts available. They ordered the parts for me, it is now April 22, 2024, and they still say there are no parts available. I also had contacted another dealer who stated the same situation, there are no parts available, and that the brake issues are an ongoing problem that Dodge is not taking care of. My truck is unsafe, there are tens of thousands of these trucks that are unsafe. The manufacturer should be made to correct the problems and fix the trucks.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2018 Ram 2500. The contact stated that prior to owning the vehicle, the vehicle was serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V021000 (Steering). The remedy for the recall called for the dealer to check the steering linkage jam nut tightness, replacing the drag link assembly, or welding the nut to the adjuster sleeve. The contact recently took the vehicle to an independent mechanic for a wheel alignment and was informed that the alignment could not be performed due to the welding of the drag link. The contact was informed that the drag link would have to be cut to perform the wheel alignment. The vehicle was then taken to a dealer where it was recommended that the drag link be replaced; however, the manufacturer refused to cover the cost of the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 108,000.

Potential Consequences:
ON 3/21/2024 while traveling HCU/ABS Control module failed prompting intermittent dash lights and disabling ABS/TCS and Cruise Control. This was the first time this occurred and came without warning creating a very dangerous situation. As a result, hile traveling down the interstate during a rain event the truck lost traction at high speed (65mph in 70mph zone). This was instantaneous under medium throttle when the ABS/HCU ABS module suddenly disengaged allowing wheel spin on wet pavement. This caused the truck to briefly turn sideways on the freeway until intervened by myself the driver. This could have been very dangerous as there were numerous other vehicles in lanes on either side. No collision resulted. The vehicle has good tires and is in good condition outside of this failure. Upon investigation, I have found this to be very common on these trucks yrs 17-18. When I called the manufacturer they stated they are back ordered as it is a common failure and frequently require replacement.

This was instantaneous under medium throttle when the ABS/HCU ABS module suddenly disengaged allowing wheel spin on wet pavement. This caused the truck to briefly turn sideways on the freeway until intervened by myself the driver. This could have been very dangerous as there were numerous other vehicles in lanes on either side. No collision resulted. The vehicle has good tires and is in good condition outside of this failure. Upon investigation, I have found this to be very common on these trucks yrs 17-18. When I called the manufacturer they stated they are back ordered as it is a common failure and frequently require replacement.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Within the first 20k miles of owning this truck the check electronic power steering came on and the abs module was replaced. Now at 60k miles it's happening again from some basic research it seems that 2018 rams all suffer from this faulty part and even when it's replaced it still didn't last and the part it now backordered. ABS is a major part of the safety of a truck even more so when it's a heavy 2500. Ram needs to step up and take care of its customers and replace these units in a recall.
